THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT,, AUG. 4, 1938 VOICE CANADA THE EMPIRE ijTHE WORLD AT LARGE' ot the PRESS CANADA Should Do Slow Time The next who wants to make excessively fast time in his auto should be made to do slow time behind the walls of the county jail.-- Guelph Mercury. Vacation Worries Business men everywhere will soon be looking forward to getting away from the hot, crowded bathing beaches for a long rest in a nice, quiet office.--Hamilton Specta- They Were'nt Sissies Modern hitch-hikers will surely blush like sissies if they read the "Looking Backward" column on this page recently. Fifty years ago it w.is seemingly the custom for Stratford ladies to walk to Mitchell (thirteen miles), visit friends, go to church and walk back to the ^eity. And not a thumb was raised or a "glad eye" lifted!-- Stratford Beacon-Herald. Not For Private Gain Surely, after the experience of the last war, the manufacture of munitions in Canada, including aircraft, gun mountings, tanks, whatever may be needed, should be brought under the administration of one national co-ordinating authority. It could be patterned after the Imperial ministry of munitions; but it should be sufficiently strong to resist interference either by subversive political or profiteering inter- Pasteurization Law Pasteurized milk is to be the only milk sold in cities and towns of Ontario on and after October 1st next while at the end of the present year raw milk will disappear as an article on sale in the whole province. The provincial Department, of Health has taken the matter in hand, with the result that an order-in-council has been issued by the Hepburn government. The only thing wrong about the affair is that this step was not taken years ago. A huge amount of sickness could have been avoided. Milk carries disease germs very easily. Bacteria get into it readily. And many a cow is tubercular. Through boiling of milk harmful contents are Met Air Route To Asia The outstanding deduction probably to be drawn from Mr. Hughes' performance can only be realized by viewing his route in the reverse order he flew it. Consider him beginning instead of ending by flying across Western Canada to Siberia. He would have been in Asia for two days. This overland air route to Eastern Europe and Asia has long been advocated in some quarters, but it has been opposed by established routes across the width of the Pacific and the neglect of the British to help develop the Canadian route to Asia while they pushed untenable Mediterranean routes to the Far East. Mr. Hughes has profoundly added to the significance of the overland air route to Asia. He has now only eclipsed the evidences given by the Russian fliers themselves and, incidentally, by the Canadians flying in and around the Arctic, or Northern, route, and he has done so' because of advancement in aeronautical sci ence and superb achievement in machine production. His performance is most remarkable because it is so ordinarily possible.--Winnipeg Free One Egg Did It A West Indian woman named Missie lives in comfort, on the island of Dominica entirely on the proceeds which accrued from a single egg. This was given her seven years ago, when she slipped it beneath a neighbour's hen and in three weeks was the proud owner of a chicken. The thick grew into a hen, laid eggs, and soon Missie had a number of chickens. They in turn laid eggs which she sold, and bought a pig. The pig in due course had six porkers, five of which were sold, and wkh the money she bought a goat. The goat had kids, and with the price they fetched a donkey was added to the collection. Missie soon had Now she deals in eggs, milk, and pork, and has managed to purchase a one-room house. Her farm is self-supporting and is the outcome entirely of a single egg! Making matches brought $3,-811,000 profit to Sweden's leading match company last year. The EMPIRE Canada and Defence Canada as a whole is not isolationist, altough isolationism is extremely strong. She is not ready to adopt a "British Front Policy" and is receding from it. The recent actions of the Chamberlain Government have weakened faith in Britain. The ardour of Canadian supporters of the co-operation of their country with the Commonwealth and the League has been sadly damped. British actions in Spain have brought dismay to Liberals and, although welcomed by the Roman Catholic French-Canadians of Quebec, have not affected their isolationist sentiment -- one of the most important influences on Canadian foreign policy. So Canada Will World Flights Menace Health Ex-U.S. Surgeon General, Is Alarmed Lest Air Lines Spread Disease Dr. Hugh S. Cumming, former Surgeon General of the United States, returned from Europe last week, after attending meetings of the committee of the International Health Office in Paris and the League of Nations Health Committee No Way of Quarantining The main discussions, he said, concerned the problem of yellow go her way, determined to do nothing to disturb her close friendship with the United States, determine! to maintain her connection with the Commonwealth, but steadily independent in the matter of any risks of becoming embroiled in war overseas. This_does not' mean that co-operati^flB in the armament orders anwoTrffted recently) will not be forthcoming, but it means that it may have severe limits and that the British Government cannot take anything for granted.--Manchester fever, still prevalent in the jungles of South America and the equatorial regions of Africa. Airplane travel, especially a world flight with its great speed, has created new health dangers, Dr. Gumming said, since a plane may transport fever-carrying mosquitoes to new area-;. It is possible for a passenger to travel from a disease-ridden section into a healthy one in less time than the incubation period of the disease. This makes normal quarantine protections ineffective, Dr. Cum-ming explained, and at some point in Africa a rule has been made that air line patrons must be out of the fever districts for a full six days before they ar? permitted to taki passage in the planes. Pan-Americans Airways has taken the lead along another line, Dr. Gumming said, by fumigating its airplanes regularly and requiring the crew members to be vaccinated. Stamp-Licker Philadelphia Post Office has installed a new automatic device which does away with stamp licking. You put in your coin and out comes the stamp, already moistened and ready to stick on your letter. Mind Clinics Put Joy Into Industry British Plants Supply Mental First Aid to Employees Mind clinics in factories and in workshops are finding the causes of unhappiness at work and are suggesting remedies. Mental first aid is available in some of the biggest industrial plants in England. An official of the Institute of Industrial Psychology explained how their side of the system is worked. "Suppose the whole staff of a particular department complain of headaches or fatigue and yet don't seem overworked or strained. Abolish Monotony "We should probably be asked about it, and consultative psychologists would be sent to investigate. "If they found that the lighting and ventilation were not the cause of the trouble they might perhaps find that the workers had a supervisor who was unsuitable for the job and was getting on their nerves. "They would recommend a staff change accordingly." Changes in the lighting, frequent repainting of woodwork, brighter colors in the room--these are some of the way n which monotony is abolished. : Talk ng Ban Lifted It has be;n found that modern landscapes, lar'.icuiarly those in which blue and yellow are dominant, have tin atost exhilarating effect.

You will note that certain points are allowed for each combination of five cards which can be formed with the twenty-five cards appearing in this example game. The object is to rearrange these cards in five horizontal rows in such a way as to attain as high a score as you can based on the table of points. While the cards do not appear in red and knowledge ot the table of points and a little foresight in rearranging: the cards. Referring back to thi? ^ajnple^ganip^you wiil^note^that for example, you could move the jack of clubs from the top row to the third row for four jacks, giving you a score of 440 for this row. Now take the six of clubs from the fourth row and place it in the top row, and you have a run of all clubs to the ten. You lose five points in this row by taking away the jack, but vou gain 175 points in the third row for a total of 1490, a nice increase over 1320. Simple, isn't it?
